The hardness and pain is due to capsule contracture.  his is a result of excessive scar tissue forming around the implant and squeezing it.  Removal of the scar tissue is possible with additional surgery and could achieve a softer, better looking breast, but it is possible for the scar tissue to re-occur.  Complete removal of the implants will also eliminate this problem.
